Psalms 135:17

17they have ears, but do not hear,
nor is there any breath in their mouths.

Jeremiah 10:14

14 aEvery man is stupid and without knowledge;
bevery goldsmith is put to shame by his idols,
for his images are false,
cand there is no breath in them.

Jeremiah 50:2

2 Declare among the nations and proclaim,
set up a banner and proclaim,
conceal it not, and say:
dBabylon is taken,
eBel is put to shame,
Merodach is dismayed.
fHer images are put to shame,
her idols are dismayed.’

Habakkuk 2:18-19

18 gWhat profit is an idol
when its maker has shaped it,
a metal image, ha teacher of lies?
For its maker trusts in his own creation
when he makes ispeechless idols!
19 jWoe to him kwho says to a wooden thing, Awake;
to a silent stone, Arise!
Can this teach?
Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver,
and lthere is no breath at all in it.
